Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of bamboo and wood processing machinery technology, and relates to a machine that automatically glues bamboo and wood strips into boards. Background Technology
[0002] Bamboo or wood splicing panels are among the most commonly used materials in the furniture and home decoration industries. One type of splicing machine mainly consists of a pressure plate above the feeding table and pressure strips above the splicing table. Before placing the bamboo or wood strips onto the feeding table, one worker needs to place multiple bamboo or wood strips on a gluing table, while another worker applies glue to the top surface of the strips. Then, each strip is manually rotated 90° to join the glued side with the un-glueed side. Both workers then manually move the rotated strips to the feeding table. Because the work is done by hand, only four strips can be moved at a time. Furthermore, when manually placing the strips on the feeding table, the foremost strip sometimes tipes over. When workers reach to straighten the fallen strip, the pressure plate above can press down, potentially causing injury. This method of splicing strips, requiring manual gluing, rotating, and moving, is not only inefficient but also poses safety hazards. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention provides an automatic bamboo and wood strip splicing machine to solve the problems of safety hazards and low work efficiency in existing bamboo and wood strip splicing methods.

A tilting device is provided on the X-axis slide rail. The tilting device includes an X-axis pulley, a tilting cylinder, and at least two clamping cylinders. The X-axis pulley is connected to the X-axis slide rail and can slide on the X-axis slide rail. The tilting cylinder is connected to the clamping cylinders and is used to control the clamping cylinders to tilt 90°. The clamping cylinders are provided with grippers, which tilt as the clamping cylinders tilt. The clamping cylinders are used to... The gripper controls the clamping and releasing of the bamboo and wood strips with glue applied to their top surface. A clamping device is provided on the Y-axis slide rail, comprising a Y-axis pulley, a lifting cylinder, and a clamping cylinder. The Y-axis pulley is connected to the Y-axis slide rail and can slide on it. The lifting cylinder is connected to the base plate and controls its raising and lowering. The base plate has two clamping plates with clamping blocks on them. These clamping blocks are connected to the clamping cylinder, which controls their clamping and releasing.
[0005] A more specific technical solution to the above technical solution may be: the tilting cylinder is connected to a long connecting rod, the clamping cylinder is connected to a short connecting rod, the long connecting rod and the short connecting rod are hinged together, and the tilting cylinder drives the long connecting rod to move back and forth through extension and retraction, and the short connecting rod hinged to the long connecting rod drives the clamping cylinder to tilt 90°.
[0006] Furthermore, the clamping device is also equipped with a lifting pulley and a lifting rod. The lifting rod is connected to the base plate, and the lifting pulley is connected to the lifting rod, which can increase the stability of the clamping device.
[0007] Furthermore: the front end of the clamping plate is provided with a fixed clamping block, the middle part of the clamping plate is provided with a slide rail, the slide rail is provided with a sliding clamping block, the sliding clamping block is connected to the clamping cylinder, the clamping cylinder is located at the end of the clamping plate, and the extension and retraction of the clamping cylinder drives the sliding clamping block to move back and forth, clamping the bamboo and wood strips to be glued into a board.
[0008] Furthermore, a gluing device is also provided near the flipping device. The gluing device includes a feed inlet, a gluing roller, an upper feeding roller, and a lower feeding roller. The feed inlet is horizontally aligned with the gripper. The gluing roller and the upper feeding roller are located between the feed inlet and the gripper. The lower feeding roller is located below the upper feeding roller. Glue is injected between the gluing roller and the upper feeding roller. The bamboo and wood strips extend from the feed inlet. The bamboo and wood strips are rolled and conveyed to the gripper by the rotation of the upper feeding roller and the lower feeding roller in different directions. During the conveying process, the rotation of the gluing roller and the upper feeding roller in different directions applies glue to the top surface of the bamboo and wood strips.
[0009] Furthermore: an auxiliary feeding roller is provided next to the upper feeding roller, and the lower feeding roller is located below the upper feeding roller and the auxiliary feeding roller. The auxiliary feeding roller is used for rolling and conveying bamboo and wood strips that do not require glue.
[0010] Furthermore, the glue application device also includes a lifting frame, on which the upper feeding roller and the auxiliary feeding roller are mounted. By adjusting the height of the lifting frame, the interval between the upper feeding roller, the auxiliary feeding roller, and the lower feeding roller can be adjusted, making it suitable for various specifications of bamboo and wood strips. The lifting frame is equipped with a glue roller slide rail, and the glue application roller is connected to the glue roller slide rail via a glue roller slider. The glue roller slider is equipped with an adjusting valve, which adjusts the interval between the glue application roller and the upper feeding roller to control the glue flow rate.
[0011] Furthermore, limiting plates are provided at both ends of the coating roller and the upper feed roller to prevent glue from overflowing from both ends of the coating roller and the upper feed roller.
[0012] Furthermore: there are seven clamping cylinders, each of which is connected to a clamping claw, and the inlet is provided with seven inlet slots, which can clamp seven bamboo and wood strips at the same time.
[0013] Furthermore, the flipping device, the clamping device, and the gluing device are all connected to the control system.

The clamping device then descends to the bamboo and wood strips, and the clamping cylinder controls the clamping block to clamp multiple bamboo and wood strips to glue them into a board. Finally, the clamping device rises to transport the board smoothly to the feeding table of the splicing machine. It has the characteristics of high working efficiency and no safety hazards.

At this time, the fixed clamping block 343 is located on the right side of the seventh bamboo and wood square strip, and the sliding clamping block 344 is located on the left side of the first bamboo and wood square strip. Then, control the sliding clamping block 344 on the clamping cylinder 36 to move closer to the fixed clamping block 343 to glue the seven bamboo and wood square strips into a board. Finally, control the lifting cylinder 33 to raise the clamping plate 341. The clamping and conveying device 3 slides on the Y-axis slide rail 12 to the feeding table of the splicing machine 5, and then the pressure plate 52 flattens the board and sends it to the pressure strip 51 to continue splicing the board.
